From the search help: You can use m for minute, h for hour, d for day, w for week, mo for month, and y for year. It seems likely that users would want to use months more often than minutes in...
From the Review Suggested Edit page there is a button to "Return to post" which links back to the post on which the edit is being suggested: This makes sense, as one of the places a reviewer may...
In the edit history for a post, the initial version is labelled "Initial revision" even though it is not a revision. What would make more sense here? Initial post? Initial version? Initial wor...
The mechanics of what you do now is best. The wording could be a little softer with better explanation. A grayed button or missing button will cause questions or bug reports. Dismissing an overl...
When a post has been deleted, it shows a notice explaining its situation: This notice says: Users with the Curate privilege may vote to undelete (emphasis mine) However, the button below ...
When viewing my own user profile (not anyone else's) there is a button below the profile content called "Mobile Sign In": This does the same as the Mobile Sign In button in the page header: I...
I recently added an image to my user profile as an experiment. In the edit preview this showed in full, but after saving it shows on my profile with a vertical scroll bar and the bottom section of ...
Such a tag limit seems low to me, though I can't think of any specific cases in which more than 5 tags would apply. However, I'm not sure what the use in limiting this upfront is; I'm not sure it s...
Argument against Quite simply, none of the available reactions has a clear and pressing need for such a marking. "Works for me" can be directly contradicted The only good reason to mark a "w...
Some thoughts: If e.g. profanity in tags is becoming an issue, that should definitely be dealt with, perhaps with a regex filter. (If a community runs into the Scunthorpe problem this way, a f...
I don't see anything wrong with a way to ban tags, other than it would require more coding from CD devs. Nothing wrong with that - you need to break some eggs if you want an omelette. However, may...
Wary of trying to be too general Although I like the idea of this for making sure indications of interest don't last indefinitely on Codidact Proposals, trying to find a general use for expiring r...
Reactions are currently used on CD to: Confirm an answer worked (similar to accepting an answer on SO) Show that an answer is dangerous Indicate interest in participating in a proposed CD site...
I just created a bug report post about notifications in the inbox. When applying tags for my post, I typed in "notifications". That resulted in two tags [tag:notification] and [tag:notifications]. ...
None currently, as I understand the scope of the existing communities.
I only believe people should be banned if they did something wrong. They should be banned, and then should know that they are banned, why, and for how long. People who have not done anything wrong...
I strongly oppose the refusal to accept these tag edits. Many of the edits were declined by the same reviewer with similar reasons, namely that "it's not worth bumping posts for silly tags". This i...
By default all edits should show Every time an edit is made, the post or its parent should move to the top of the question list. This reduces the chance of an edit being missed by the community. ...
Ruby on Rails. The code is hosted on GitHub: https://github.com/codidact/qpixel I do not know what cloud provider it is deployed on.
If I insert a URL to a Codidact post, I would like it to display the title of the post as inline text, hyperlinked to the post, without me manually doing that. For example: https://proposals.codid...
When? When looking at search results, or list of posts in general - for e.g. viewing list of posts tagged [wikipedia]. Here's a screenshot of the mentioned example: What? The text displayed s...
Before I found out about the explicit closure reasons in the interface, this is the proposed set I was working on: Duplicate Description: self-explanatory. Commentary: here is still an open ques...
It's common to hear comments about QA sites being "cluttered", "clogged", "spammed" etc. Even disregarding advertising / off-topic astroturfing etc. (the sort of thing that the "It's spam" fla...
Clutter refers to the unwanted or uninteresting stuff you have to dispense with before getting to what you want. On a Q&A site, that usually means low quality questions. These questions clutt...
On the post edit page, after clicking on the "Save Post in Q&A" button, that button changes color to gray. No page load takes place, and the post does not get submitted.
